Get matched →The New English Art Club (NEAC) invites artists to submit work for exhibition alongside members at the NEAC Annual Exhibition 2026. At the heart of the NEAC is the search and propagation of meaningful, resonant art, committed to authenticity through the observation of life and the articulation of ideas with the beauty of skilful language. This exhibition is a showcase for both members and aspiring artists, with a history going back more than a hundred years.
Any artist over 18 may submit, in the UK, EU, and outside the EU. Work must have been completed in the last two years and must not have been exhibited in London previously. All works must be an original creation by the artist.
Acceptable media include paintings, drawings, and original framed prints (excluding photography). Sculpture is not admissible. Works should not be larger than 2.4m along the longest dimension.
Every listing links to the organizer's official page. Always confirm deadlines, fees, and entry rules there before you apply.
Artists may enter a maximum of six works each, from which up to three works per artist may be selected. International artists will be selected online only and need only ship work to the gallery if selected.
If you would like your work considered for The NEAC Climate Emergency Prize, please write "Climate Emergency Prize" in the artwork description field when submitting.
